Normalizing the Not Normal: Vaccine Denial, Dismantling Public Ed, and Armed Drones in Schools
About this episode
This Week: Jeff got a letter published in EdWeek this month, challenging the publication of right wing opinion pieces that are racist, and overtly hostile to the institution of public school. This brings us to today’s topic, the rising tide of normalization of the not normal in our world of education. From the absolutely insane move in Florida to end school vaccine mandates, even referring to them as “slavery,” to yet another misguided set of responses (and here) to the latest tragic school shooting in MN, to the idea of having armed drones as the answer to incidents of mass violence in schools, we are living in truly troubling times. Thankfully at least some states are pushing back (west coast states, NY State). We’ve all got to ensure that the attempts to normalize the insane will not go unchallenged. Manuel and Jeff discuss!
